America’s Greatest Entertainment
America today is a world completely driven by entertainment. Our lives are surrounded by it each and every day. Entertainment could be anything from TV, movies, music, social media and the internet to skydiving, mini-golfing and paintball. Since there is so many different forms of entertainment, and the want for it is so demanding, competitors are always trying to find a way to one up one another. One classic form of entertainment that seems to be bringing people back to play, is laser tag. Many different entertainment places offer laser tag but two seem to outshine the rest, Laser Quest and Main Event. Laser Quest has a futuristic arena that is unmatched. They are in ownership of the best equipment.

Laser quest gives you the ability to select you very own codename. This codename could be anything from your real name to your favorite superhero. This codename is tied to whichever pack you select and adds to the fun and entertainment of laser tag. At Main Event, all of the names are preselected and assigned limiting your imagination and creativity. After a quick game of laser tag at Main Event you are left with a leaderboard of all the scores of the last mission, you get to see how you ranked amongst opponents which can either be quite satisfying or, depending on how you did, disappointing. At Laser Quest, you are offered that same opportunity, but not only that, everyone receives a personalized scorecard that lets them know how they did. This scorecard shows everyone that you tagged, everyone that tagged you, where exactly you tagged or were tagged, and how many lasers you fired. Laser Quest has the best equipment around and blows Main Event out of the water. Laser Quest creates a sense of competitiveness while maintaining a safe environment. Laser Quest has its own rewards program. You register your account with your codename and it ranks you across not only the people at Laser Quest but it ranks you against questors across the world. People are constantly battling their way to the very top. Laser Quest seems to be all fun and games but they actually host professional laser
In the last century, America and its inhabitants underwent many changes. From the "Roaring Twenties" to the Great Depression, and from the Dust Bowl to the ideal 50's, entertainment evolved to suit an ever changing nation. In D.W. Griffith's film, Way Down East, a young woman seeks out financial assistance from her wealthier family members. In this film in particular an ever widening separation between the classes is evident. In John Ford's The Grapes of Wrath, and The Salt of the Earth, a change has occurred within the sexes, and within the struggles of working class American's. In Leave it to Beaver, American is life depicted as worry free and ideal. It is
Here, a laser of specific wavelength is targeted on a particular area of the skin. The light from the laser beam is absorbed by the flawed outer layer of the skin and results in its vaporization. With the removal of the outer layer, the new, healthier underlying skin develops.
The 19th century was a mark of new things to come about in different countries, these new things were music, theater, and other forms of entertainment. Because of the many wars fought during this time there was much depression and people needed a relief. We all know theater has been around for many decades, but it really started to scatter during this time, people needed entertainment and something to look forward to. Of course, music halls and minstrel shows were present but there was nothing that contained both of the features that these theaters had, and then came about vaudeville. Vaudeville highlighted many famous people’s careers and even helped started many of these stars’ careers. It grew as years progressed and became a loved entertainment for many years to come. Vaudevilles’ creation was the start of our current forms of entertainment and is the heart of the American entertainment industry in the 19th century.
Although this alternative position sounds reasonable, we uphold our conclusion above because in this arrangement the laser and the software are equally important in terms of functionality. We should consider them two separate products, even though they have never been sold separately and provide no value to customers independently.
Now more than ever, we are susceptible to the influence of these atrocities and we choose to let them over power the glimmer of dignity that those with morals cling to. This became exceptionally clear to me when on the way to church camp, our driver began to sing along to one of these over-sexed songs. There's nothing quite like hearing the woman who would later lead your Bible study wailing "blow my whistle" to open your eyes to societal ruin. With the ideas and behaviors hinted at in movies, music, and television filling the gaping holes where the traditional values of previous generations once solidly stood, it's implausible to honestly say that there is nothing wrong with state of humanity.
In a small recreational center in Charlotte, North Carolina came together a group of individuals with immense talent.

The word laser is an acronym for, “Light Amplified by Stimulated Emissions of Radiation”, this means that all the lights in a laser have the same wavelength. Within a century of the laser being invented it occupied a major role in scientific research, medicine, industry, and even daily life. Lasers are used in the medicine field for procedures such as, laser eye surgery, heart, stomach, and intestinal surgeries. These procedures laser procedures are said to be harmless.

Caesars Entertainment has rebranded, refreshed and reimagined worn properties in North Lake Tahoe, Tahoe South, and Reno. “While casinos still have gaming, it’s not the primary focus,” says Mike Frye, event & media relations manager for Lake Tahoe.

"Star Wars," "Star Trek," "Battlestar Galactica" are some of fiction movies that implement laser technology in it. LASER is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. Generally, it is a device that control the way for energized atom released their photon. As we go deep into the words of ‘LASER’, it actually generates an intense beam of coherent monochromatic light (or other electromagnetic radiation) by stimulated emission of photons from excited atoms or molecules. Laser light is totally different from the other light that exist in this Earth. There are few properties that make them up as a laser. First and foremost, it is monochromatic, which means the light released contain one specific wavelength of light due

Introduced in around 250BC, gladiators were well-trained individuals who fought against each other to entertain the civilians of Rome. The gladiators fought in the Colosseum, which had a height of about 160 feet and capacity of up to 50,000 people. The Colosseum was also designed to be able to flood and hold ships. The term gladiator comes from the Latin word: "gladius" meaning sword. The profession of being a fighter brought great fame to the individual. The theme of death brought people together to see many young men die in battle. The crowd loved vicious shows that were gory and gruesome. Many gladiators who fought in the Colosseum went on to become tremendous war heroes, due to the intense training provided by the emperor. Gladiators always wore clothing that resembled other nations that the Roman army seized. They were also given unorthodox weapons to fight with and their battles usually illustrated famous ones fought by the Roman army. Sometimes, the ‘damnati ad mortem’, individuals who committed ruthless crimes, went into the arena without a weapon. Gladiators were mostly captives of war or slaves of the rich. Some people saw the fighting as a hobby and spent much time and money picking and choosing from the best of the gladiators. A fanatic of fighting was called a "lanista", or an owner of gladiators. Keeping these gladiators in good health became very expensive over time. Different gladiators were allowed to use different weapons based on their past life. For
Today’s game shows have come a long way in the past centuries. They have become more and more popular and entertaining. Some like, “The Price is Right” when it first started in 1956 and has been on since 1972 after being revamped. The show is watched by millions every day and you spin a giant wheel at the end to get into the showcase showdown where you have a chance to win a boat, car, or vacation. After watching the movie Idiocracy, I was deeply reminded of how dumb down game shows have become. As Luke Wilson played by Joe Bauers, came crashing into Fritos home, played by Dax Shepard. Frito is watching a Game show called, “Ow! My Balls!” staring Hormel Chavez. The show has everything you need to feel entertained in 2505. The star of the show
Though the guns used in commercially played laser tags have lasers they are not used in actual mechanism of the game, they actually use infrared to register hits. Infrared has its own cool properties such as it gets scattered in very short
Television, a telecommunication medium some may not survive without. Today’s generation may refer to television as a technological norm; delusional of a world where television was non-existent. Notably, television unites the nation through local or world events, politics, education, and entertainment. Philo Farnsworth, “Father of Television,” invented the television; the electronic transmission of fixed or mobile images. Furthermore, Farnsworth’s invention influenced a new form of media. Young Farnsworth’s scientific, technological imagination as well as, competitive battle with a major-league corporation, RCA, enticed the growth of one of the most popular media mediums; television.
